"Politics to me implies development, public policy and public service. I had three roles to play: as a People's Representative, as a Parliamentarian in the Lok Sabha and as a Member of my Party — Bharatiya Janata Party. I had ample role clarity right from day one. As a people's representative, I tried to have as much interface with everyone in my Constituency as possible. Grievance redressal mechanism has been stabilised by now. Hearing people out and following up on all issues helped redress many grievances. I tried to articulate and draw the attention of the concerned authorities towards the issues of my Constituency in various fora including Lok Sabha and Parliamentary Standing Committees," the MP has stated in the ARC, adding that she would come up with this Report every year during Rath Yatra.
